Cross-Eyed Muddler
A twist on the classic Muddler Minnow, the Cross-Eyed Muddler features a spun head to create a unique swimming action. This fly is perfect for imitating sculpins, small baitfish, or other bottom-dwelling prey, making it irresistible to trout and other predatory fish.
How to fish it: Swing it through current seams, strip it slowly along drop-offs, or bounce it along the bottom to mimic a sculpin or panicked baitfish. Effective on floating, sink-tip or full-sinking lines.
Best for: Rivers, streams, and lakes where predatory fish target bottom-dwelling baitfish and sculpins. Excellent in both clear and slightly stained water.
Why we love it: Unique head design and lifelike movement make it a standout for catching aggressive and selective fish. Durable and versatile - a must have in any streamer box.
